Creating a new component as you wish with its own acoustic performances

AcouBAT includes an exhaustive database that you can use to enter the different components used in your geometry.

The components are classified in 12 categories :

Traditional masonry

Concrete wall or slab

Partition

Lightweight partition wall

Floor covering

Lining

Door and window

Technical service equipement

Roof

Suspended ceiling and access floor

Curtain wall façade

Thermal bridge breaker

Absorbing material

There is also a classification by manufacturer.

A description diagram is given for traditional products.

The database integrated into the AcouBAT software is complete and reliable and contains nearly 2 000 products with 2 500 acoustic performances tested in ISO 17025 accredited laboratories within the last 10 years.

It is recognized on the market as being one of the best available programs for the prediction of acoustic performances and more than 100 manufacturers have chosen to include their construction products in the AcouBAT software database

Did you know? Acoubat is a living software: the database is updated every year. A major new version is also released every other years.

The AcouBAT software is ideal in order to consider acoustic aspects from the start of your building project and will assist you in optimisation of your acoustic performances to satisfy requirements about :

AcouBAT software calculations are based on parts 1 to 6 in the series of European standards EN 12354, necessary for the diagnostic of building acoustic performances. The software calculates acoustic performances in bands of thirds of octave between 100 and 5000 Hz, and the corresponding unique indexes.

Auralisation and realistic listening The AcouBAT software goes even further in acoustic performance and is also capable of reproducing the sound of an airborne noise (indoor or outdoor) inside a room or an adjacent room.

Updated database for generic products to include low frequencies performances

Introduction of in-situ measurement results to compare to building predicted performance

Introduction of rainfall noise performance for roof elements and evaluation of rainfall noise level in a room

Veranda panels included in database

AcouSYS

Software to predict the acoustic performances of complex multilayered structures found in building, automotive, aeronautic domains.

The AcouSYS software allows exporting acoustic performance of complex multilayered components directly into AcouBAT software. This complementarity allows evaluating the acoustic performance of a building including new componentsTo learn more about AcouSYSclick here.
